After reading some of the reviews I really didn't expect to see my order of four items any time soon! Pleasantly surprised, they emailed me when the order shipped out, and it arrived in Australia about 9 days later. Padded pink parka great, white 'trenchcoat' actually cream and not at all trench coat like (but I still like it). Blue boyfriend jacket more like turquoise, but nice fit, and double breasted rosy pink long jacket, unable to get arms into! Don't think I'll bother trying to return as customer service seems a nightmare. Still think I got a good deal.
Ok, fellow shoppers. Stay far, far away from this company. Order took six weeks to arrive, arrived with absolutely no tags or paperwork. The size was much smaller than listed on the site. I sent an email to request a return address and have never heard back. And after reading the posts here, I don't expect to!
Take a look at the language in the positive reviews on here. You will notice very quickly that they're not written by native English speakers. Lines like "all my friends make good comment on the dress". Clearly the company is placing these positive reviews to counter the reviews from their actual, unhappy customers.
Buyer beware on this one!

When I made my first purchase, I was a little nervous. I had bad experiences with wish and a few other online stores. Cheap material, clothes that didn't come close to fitting even if I went by the measurements.
That is not the case with SHEIN at all. Every single item has fit me perfectly and has been of either decent or really good quality, which is amazing, especially for the prices. I've now ordered at least 10 different times and haven't felt the need to return anything. I am always careful to read descriptions and reviews however. I will definitely continue to shop on this site.
I have waited for 2 weeks then finally got all my items today. The quality is better than I expected. I was worried when I read many reviews telling people to stop shopping on Shein. But now it seems everything goes well! That surprise me!
Placed an order weeks ago, it never shipped. They charged me, thank God paypal will handle this. They admitted they sell merchandise they do not have in stock. RUN from thee people. Hard to get in touch with, no email for them and their ON LINE chat is a joke.

Just received my clothing.
I have just wasted over $100 on these poor quality, poorly made, not true to size and damaged.
Please don't waste your money.
I hope the op shop can sell them as that's where they are going.
Not happy.

I found some very nice deals here when shopping for my desirable product and service. I've already received several compliments. I am happy to save on shipping by purchasing a couple of pieces at once.
Tonight "Shein" notified me that they received my return of 2 items (of the wrong size). For some reason they list the dress as being the correct size ordered & the label clearly reads "L" & I ordered medium. Because their "customer service" is so outstanding they noted at the bottom of the page:
"Please do not reply to this email that was sent automatically by system. For any questions, please contact our customer service for help. (They don't give an email or phone for this information.) They also list a refund amount of USD 11.05! I have no clue how they arrived at that figure. Both items cost more than that. The bottom line remains POOR! They are difficult, liars & cheats. Their rights to sell products in this country should be investigated & then I'm sure suspended. If you value your time, quality of products, customer service & your sanity please don't bother with these people! There are too make good companies out there to choose from!

I've gotten some of my favorite pieces from SheIn - its a really great website and the clothes have been fantastic. Such fabulous pieces at amazing prices - it blows me away how awesome the customer service is! Also - quick shipping! Will be a customer for a long time to come, very happy with everything!
I really enjoy my shopping experiences with SheInside. They have trendy, cute clothes like what I might find at Forever 21 or Charlotte Russe, but better prices and more appealing styles. Unlike the other reviewers, I have yet to receive something that isn't decent quality. Everything I have purchased has held up for a few washes so far, and still looks nice. Shipping is fast, too!
Who ever gives this site a five star rating must be used to inferior products. I ordered a sweater and it's cheap flannel. The large doesn't even fit my daughter who wears size 4. Site says "stocked in US" but ships from China. Just watched a documentary on the textile industry and labor in foreign countries, the harsh working conditions of people (mostly women) who make on average of $2.00/day pumping out this cheap clothing. Many large American or European stores such as Old Navy & H&M exploit workers for the manufacture of cheap throw away clothes. I'm hoping people quit buying from places like yours.
Dear customer,
Nice day.
Thank you for your support and choosing SheIn.
But we are really sorry to hear that you are unsatisfied with our quality and size. About the quality, you can send us some images which can show any clear defects so that we can check the images for you. Moreover, about the size, there may be up to 2-3cm error because of manual measurement. You also can take photos of the measurement of the item so that we can confirm with our factory. After confirmation, we will be responsible for quality and size problems caused by us. Hope you can trust us.
If you ordered items which are not all with "Stock in US", your order may be separated and despatched from different warehouse. We sincerely apologize for letting you down this time. But SheIn cherishes our customers, we are willing to help you. Hope you can give us one chance.
If there is any problem, please feel free to contact us via dispute@shein.com.
Thank you for your support.
Best regards
Honestly I dont even know where to begin with the clusterf*ck of an experience that I've had with Shein. Missing orders, no communication, evasive agents when trying to resolve, being told I'll be getting refunded only to find that they never actually did the refund, not using quality or reliable couriers for their deliveries... unreal

I ordered 3 outfits from Shein. Once my order arrived I realised that 1 outfit was missing the top. Since then I've been trying to contact someone for help but, all they have is live chat. I will not be ordering anything else.

I have to start by saying that people need to give companies a fair chance by realising that those dealing with your orders are human beings.
I love this website! It has a clean and crisp interface, where everything is accessible at a glance. No over-complex menus, cumbersome navigation or functionality that's out of reach. From a shopping website stand point, SheInside nails the look!
It seems like there's always a sale on -- because there is so much variety on the 'site that you're spoilt for choice! What's even better is the fact that (unlike some big name-brands) all this stock is available in the sizes you want. I can't think of anything I hate more than browsing on-sale stock and seeing it out of stock!
Bought some shirts, bottoms and accessories from them and everything went smooth! Email alerts regarding my order, dispatch times and delivery confirmation. What more can you ask for?
5 Stars from me, any day! :)
After spending thousands of dollars, Shein refuses to refund or reorder my purchase as package was lost yet says delivered...they can't even provide proof of delivery! Never again, shameful business and shipping practices!

Let me start by their quality is not even worth 99 cents. Things are made so cheap that it makes Forever 21 a premium brand. Size fits like a kids clothing. Then the return never gets refunded. I ended up disputing in order to get the return money back.

All the things I've ordered from there I've donated. The price is really cheap and that's why I bought them so it's expected to not be that great of quality. The photos are pretty catfish as in they make the product look a lot better than what you actually get.

Although Shein got back to me when I complained, I'm still confused about the returns system. I was told not to bother sending over 100 worth of products back because the postage would cost so much. I would be better off to buy more as they were giving me a 40% reduction (that code doesn't work!). They said "To save your time and return shipping fee, we can give you a 40% off coupon code using toward your future order, then you do not need to return back us". I really don't get this business at all. The ticket system is confusing and I think I just have to suck it up and realise I've been done. The clothes are so badly designed and so ill-fitting, I needed help to get them off. They will end up going to a charity shop or something. I'm so annoyed. If something looks too good to be true, it probably is...
Hi dear,
Thank you for ordering from our website. We’re truly sorry for letting you down.
We cannot find any effective information through the order number you provided. Please send us (our e-mail address is dispute@shein.com) your correct order or the email address you registered on our website that we can help you as soon as possible.
Apologies again for all the trouble. Waiting for your reply.
Clothes are super cute and affordable, reading these reviews I am worried I won't get my order before school starts on September 1st or at least sometime during that week. 3 weeks should be plenty of time.
Answer: They asked me 8 times to change my review! And offered me $15 out of my over $100 that I spent as a refund. "consider it carefully" consider the fact that this company steals brands
Answer: Hi SHEIN takes about 2 to 3 weeks if your from the uk or USA and Ive order a few things from and the clothes are amazing Im from the uk but if youre from any where else it might take longer
Answer: Do not waste your money on this website, they are very disrespectful, and they do not help their customers. It was one of the worst shopping experiences ever.
Answer: It is a hit and miss. Some items are OK but others are made by them recreating clothes from other companies and the fabrics are literally table cloths of worse. It is best to look at the photos of clothing posted by the users themselves and not she inside. I wouldn't purchase anything they add themselves. Also, to let you know how long it takes. I ordered a few items on April 15th via express shipping and they still haven't shipped them. It is JUNE! So I would save your money and shop at other sites even if they're a bit more expensive.
Answer: It's better for you to check the measurements fir each
Answer: I personally have only ever purchased off of their website. I got my clothes in a good period of time and sure some of the clothes didn't fit the way I needed them too but that's the risk you take buying online without trying something on. I found the clothes to be a good quality. I would compare the quality of items I received to be similar to that of like forever 21 or urban planet. No where is going to be perfect and you have to use your discretion when purchasing something. Obviously you're not going to get this intricate beautifully crafted A+++ quality item for like $13, but I would say the quality was better than I had expected given the pricing.
Answer: My order took four to five weeks. The clothes weren't at all how they looked online either.
Answer: Whatever you do, don't order anything from this site. The shipping took 3 weeks, even after I had paid for express shipping. Further, the items are SO CHEAP, and their return policy is so terrible, that I literally threw items out... Don't think anyone at a thrift store would even want them.
Answer: Takes AGES to come and the quality and sizing is very poor.
Answer: Yes, no phone no., bad reviews will get their attention immediately. Worst online shopping experience ever.
